Date night is coming up, so it’s the perfect time to brush up on your mobile phone etiquette. Here’s a comprehensive infographic packed with helpful hints, just in time for Saturday night.
Rather than simply overwhelm you with tons of unfocused tips, man-about-town and Forbes contributor Michael T. Mathews concentrates on social media and smartphone etiquette for the classic dinner date, including activities before, during and after the encounter.
To gather this treasure trove, he interviewed social media marketers in New York City, combined those tips with his own experience, and tossed in a dash of common sense, resulting in an infographic that rings true to us.
Of course, we’re sure Mashable readers — all of whom are socially adept, refined, civilized and good-looking — won’t need this list, but it could certainly be handy for those friends and acquaintances of yours who are not quite so well-versed in the rules of the genteel. Feel free to pass this along to those unfortunate souls.
In the meantime, we’d like to hear from you: Do you have additional tips to add to Mike’s list? What’s the worst breach of smartphone and social media etiquette you’ve ever seen on a dinner date?
